Sports Massages

Sports massages are customized based on upcoming athletic events and on the current level of discomfort for athletes. The days of athletes only getting massages to perform during sporting events are long gone. There are four different types of massages offered at Catalina Medical Center: pre game, post-game, restorative, and rehabilitative massages.


Prior to playing in sporting events we offer stimulating Swedish massages that target the muscles that will be utilized in the event and boost circulation in the body to maximize performance. Massages for after the event are designed to relieve soreness and help prevent muscle stiffness the day after. Our Chiropractors at Catalina Medical Center also offer restorative massages and rehabilitative massages. Restorative massages are designed for keeping muscle warm and supple while limiting the potential for injury. Rehabilitative massages target a specific injured area to speed up recovery time and increase circulation and range of motion.


All massages are designed to each athlete’s individual needs to achieving a certain goal.

Neck Stiffness

Do you suffer from a stiff neck and not know where to get help? At the Catalina Medical Center, we employ medical professionals with diverse backgrounds to provide patients with a variety of treatment options. We take a holistic approach that will get you comfortable again without major intervention or risk of addiction. Major muscles called the levator scapulae stretch from the shoulder to the neck bones. Neck stiffness can usually be traced to problems in these muscles. People who rest their chins on their palms or who spend a lot of time with their head bent looking at a screen commonly wear these muscles out. Swimmers can get stiff necks from turning their heads so much, and painters often wear out their necks working. Overuse injuries resulting in misalignment of the neck bones can also squeeze the surrounding muscles. When patients come to our office, we’ll do diagnostic exams to ensure we’ve identified the cause of their neck pain correctly. (In rare cases, a stiff neck can resu

Degenerative Disc Disease Treatment

Degenerative Disc Disease is less of a disease and more of a byproduct of aging. As we grow older, our bodies naturally begin to wear down. The spinal discs protect the vertebrae from everyday wear and tear. Once they weaken you can experience problems like bulging and herniated discs, osteoarthritis, and spinal stenosis. Drs. Richard Cohen, Rob Josefsson, and Paul Newhouse work with you to relieve any painful symptoms. To learn more, contact our office in Redondo Beach, CA.   Any noticeable symptoms depend entirely on the patient. The biggest factor is the severity of the condition. Some patients don’t even notice that they have it. Pain is noted in the back or neck, wherever the affected disc is located. It can even spread through the arms, legs, and buttocks. Overall, pain levels range from mild to severe.   As mentioned, the biggest cause of degenerative disc disease is aging. Discs naturally lose fluid, making them stiffer and smaller. Everyday use leaves a toll. Repeated physical
